Introduction
This manual explains how to enable publishing to the information system (BDII) from non-gLite middleware - specifically ARC, Unicore, Globus and QCG.
Globus
Publishers for GRAM, GridFTP and gsissh have been provided by the EGCF (formerly IGE) project. The latest version is in
globus-info-provider-service-0.2.0-2.noarch.rpm
globus-yaim-core-0.2.0-2.noarch.rpm
in the EGCF (IGE) repository. At present the only documentation is inside the package.
Installation hints
In order to install and configure the globus information provider, you should first install siteBDII provided by EMI/UMD. Some hints can be found on the EMI pages.
The next step is to install the above mentioned globus packages. The YAIM targets for configurating the service providers are BDII_GLOBUS_GRAM5, BDII_GLOBUS_GRIDFTP and BDII_GLOBUS_GSISSH. The YAIM package contains example .def files to start with in the examples folder of yaim (${YAIMROOT}/glite/yaim/examples/).
Further information can be found in the README files located in the folders /usr/share/doc/globus-info-provider-service/ and /usr/share/doc/globus-yaim-core/.
UNICORE
The Instruction how to configure UNICORE to publish to EGI Information system can be found under:
Important: The feature is available in the very latest stable version of unicore/x, that is 6.6.0-p4, it is not a part of UMD yet. Therefore the site administrators either have to wait until the suitable release is there (in UMD) or download it directly from the unicore's sourceforge file server.
